Arada launches AED8b forested community project in Sharjah

Sharjah / WAM

Sharjah-based real estate developer Arada has announced the launch of Masaar, the developer's third project, a mega community in the Al Juwaiza'a district of New Sharjah with a sales value of AED8 billion. The 19 million square foot upscale project will include 4,000 villas and townhouses in total, all set in eight gated districts linked by Masaar's signature feature, a lushly landscaped and walkable 'green spine'. Construction on Masaar will begin in the second quarter, and the first homes are scheduled to be handed over in the first quarter of 2023. Masaar, or 'path' in Arabic, has been carefully designed to enable its residents to transform their lives by encouraging healthy living in harmony with nature. Featuring over 50,000 trees, Masaar's green spine will be activated by footpaths and a range of different sporting facilities, all hosted in a safe, serene and nature-filled environment. Families residing in Masaar will have access to acres of green space allowing for forest walks, picnics, running, cycling or meditation. The focal point of Masaar is a forested heart featuring an experience centre, a Zad food truck district, a full-service fitness centre, a skatepark, a children's adventure playground and an events space.
